2x2 Green Crack & Killer Kush

—

Day 18 I topped them all this past Saturday on day 15, and they've hit their growth spurt with the GC @ 8 inches & the KK @ 7 inches. The KK when matured has been a short plant for the most part-I've had a pheno or two that were a bit taller-so not disappointed by the smaller stature of the KK-they make good bushes :) I'm watering every 2nd or 3rd day at this point, about 8 oz of water each with 1/4 tsp Bioag Ful-power fulvic acid.

Day 22 Veg. The Green Crack was looking great 2 days ago, but have outgrown the 1 gallon starter pots, the Killer Kush was even more root bound, but were showing less deficiency. I've had a mixture of Promix, Earthworm castings, pearlite and 2 tablespoons per gallon of Happy Frog All purpose dry fertilizer in a bin for the past month cooking. I wasn't as diligent this time around with my weekly routine of turning the soil over in the bin and misting it with a sprayer bottle of water. I missed doing this the last 3 weeks so, it had dried out somewhat. so I added in (about 1-1.5 gallon per each 7 gallon pot)some local bagged compost I found out in front of the grocery store for $5 a bag, some diatomaceous earth(roughly 6 tbs per each 7 gallon pot) a heaping teaspoon of azomite and about 1/4 teaspoon of yucca powder. After scoring and transplanting all 4 I watered them with plain non ph'ed filtered tap water with Mosquito Bits added in-to control fungus gnats. I collected the runoff with a turkey baster and squirted it back over the tops several times over a couple hours to make sure all the soil was saturated. I had a final runoff of about a quart and a half-I put that back in my 5 gallon bucket with airstone, diluted it with a couple gallons of water and have it currently aerating-I'll use some of it as a foliar feed later today and the rest I'll water back in once they dry out in a couple days-I may add some molasses in as well.

I had to move these out of my 5x5 and set up and move them over to a 4x4 tent, in the meantime I've moved the Kush XL & Dragon's Breath Auto's from the 3x3 they outgrew into the 5x5. I intend on putting them into flower after 8/9 weeks of veg

I missed updating the diary last week, I was busy harvesting the Kush XL Autoflowers and moving these from the 4x4 tent they outgrew despite being topped twice, super cropped & LST'd. Lights are @ 22"-24", last friday on day 42 they were top dressed with 2 cups of earthworm castings, 1/2 tsp yucca powder and each plant received 7 Tablespoons of Happy Frog Tomato & Vegetable fertilizer, and because I had a bit of a nitrogen deficiency last run crop up 3rd week of flower I added 7 tablespoons of Happy Frog all purpose. The lights are at 100% power 904 watts-I'll continue at this level until Day 38-40 of Flower, then reduce to 80% until day 49, then reduce to 50% until harvest. Previously I ran my lights at 100% until harvest, but this is exactly oppositve of nature and I feel responsible for new white pistils appearing late in flower on ripening buds and horsetailing issues, along with lowered potentcy, flavor & smell because terpenes have been burned off by the too bright of lights the final weeks of flowering.
